Pop Culture Campaigns

Mission: to highlight strong pop culture Campaigns
Founder: Nicole sorochan, Victoria
Description: Pop Culture has a major effect on our society. Once topics become popular with pop icons, they tend to influence a critical mass of people. Although pop culture can be used as a publicity stunt, it can also be used for good.
Details: In this group we can collect pop culture influences on the environment. We can also discuss new films and concerts based around eco-action and the environment.
